Hi there Change Machine Community!

After more than a year of development, Change Machine 3.0 is here! It will be available to all users on Monday, December 21, 2015.

Change Machine 3.0 Highlights

Manager Portal MANAGE: Formerly called the Manager Portal, the special area of Change Machine that supports managers and network users with program management and evaluation has been totally redone. Check out MANAGE with guided organization setup checklists, Manager Toolbox, and dedicated Data Portal.

LEARN Badges and Certificates: Your hard work on the quizzes in LEARN deserves to be recognized. Now, you can show off your new financial coaching knowledge with a printable certificate and an acknowledgement on your LinkedIn profile.

COACH Dashboard and Metrics: New charts and statistics provide coaches with insights into their caseload and performance. Reporting is no longer just for managers!

Customer Collaboration: Collaborating with your colleagues has never been smoother. Change Machine now makes it easy to see who is a customer's primary coach and who the customer met with at each meeting.

We're excited to kick off Change Machine's development in 2016 with Release 3.1!

We’ve been hard at work improving the core infrastructure that runs Change Machine. This sets up the platform to run more efficiently with even fewer bugs, while preparing ourselves for an exciting year of new development.

This new release will be available to all users on Monday, May 9, 2016.

While much of this work is on the backend, there are also a few new features on the frontend for all of you!

Change Machine 3.1 Highlights

SHARE Redesign: We're propelling ourselves to the future! Your SHARE experience has been reimagined with a beautiful, modern user interface, allowing you to ask questions and view discussions easier than before.

Mixed Access Levels: Organizations can now have users with various access levels on the same organizational account! While previously this was not possible, you can now have any combination of Basic, Community, Coach, and Manager access levels in a single organization.

Collaborate on Customers Across Organizations: Do you have partner organizations on Change Machine as well? Now, customers can be handed off from one organization to another to receive all the services that they need! The receiving organization will then have access to information that has already been entered, allowing them to immediately get the fullest picture of the customer.

Customer Management: For those with access to COACH, working with customers has never been easier. In this release, we've re-enabled the automatic duplicate customer check, restored the ability to delete customer records and made it easier to change the Primary Coach.
